In the summer you can play golf all day and all night, and if you are lucky you may be accompanied by the midnight sun. Lofoten Golf Links’ 9 hole course is magnificently situated on the far side of the island of Gimsøya, surrounded by sea, mountains and charming beaches.

Diving
Lofoten is considered one of the world’s best areas for divers. There are steep underwater walls, caves, underwater plateaux, seaweed forests, shipwrecks and excellent scope for current diving. Schools of cod, anglerfish, flatfish and wolf fish are just some of what can be found in the waters around Lofoten.

Killer Whale Safaris
From mid October to early February the Vestfjord is visited by hundreds of killer whales. A number of local tour operators take guests out to see these impressive animals, and the boldest among them are also given the opportunity of snorkelling in a dry suit together with the whales.
